    It should update the color whenever the wallpaper changes. The message is probably because you still have some mixed up config. You can restart and then set any color scheme as default and then make sure you already have choosen a custom accent color in setting. After that start the app. The app is working fine in konsole for me. I have updated the readme. check this out. If you don't get accent for some wallpapers then it means either the wallpaper is changing so fast that it does not have enough time to change accent or it is generating a color close to previous accent that the new accent is almost indistinguishable. Sometimes the app fails to generate color when the image is not supported by qt. I am using qt and it sometimes for reason says the image is not valid. In that case I just skip that wallpaper instead of annoying user that the current wallpaper is broken.

    Well I have added the instructions in the comment. This is a good issue. I will update the readme. To install download the program from release page and then put it in homedir/.config/autostart or search auto start from app launcher and add this. Here's the link. https://github.com/tantalising/kde-plasma-adaptive-wallpaper-accent-color

  • I got this notification, WTF?

    This is part of the testsuite of https://github.com/Martchus/qtutilities which you are likely building for https://github.com/Martchus/syncthingtray. It exercises the code to create notifications.
  • Syncthing, proper installed as a autostart windows service with controls from system tray ? What are the options ?
    2 projects | /r/Syncthing | 20 Nov 2022
    My Syncthing Tray (https://github.com/Martchus/syncthingtray) can cope with Syncthing being started independently of it just fine. There's no installer, just a self-contained executable. If you use its internal launcher nevertheless (instead of a system service) then its auto start feature could cover Syncthing as well and you can start/stop Syncthing from the tray. (That is therefore the intended use on Windows where service integration hasn't been implemented yet).
  • I created SyncThingy: syncthing + simple tray icon written in C++, not more and not less
    3 projects | /r/linux | 6 Sep 2022
    I do agree that it could be a lot of effort to do it, though. I didn't necessarily want to bring this up because I don't want to take away from the fact that you made something, but there already is a Qt-based tray-centric frontend, Syncthing Tray, which does have an informative status icon. Is there a particular reason you made your own application instead of making a Flathub package for this one?
  • Are you able to build a qt project into just exe?
    2 projects | /r/cpp_questions | 21 Apr 2021
    It is possible. I'm usually building my apps under Arch Linux for Windows using https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/mingw-w64-qt5-base-static. Of course this way of building it is not officially supported at all by upstream but it works for me using CMake and I guess qmake should work as well. I've also already created packages to cross compile against Qt 6. This is how the result looks like when one also bundles all other resources (and in this case even an application with in Go): https://github.com/Martchus/syncthingtray/releases/tag/v1.1.5
